how should i declare myself racially in the USA

[Wicked Jester]

If you're NOT white I wouldn't say white. It puts you at a serious disadvantage!

You look european, middle eastern and south Asian.

Seriously, just leave it alone, dude.

Im considering filling out the green Card lottery application but i dont know what race i should put in.

caucasian or bi-racial or tri-racial?

background Information: im multi-ethnic. i have roma /"gypsy" ancestry and european ancestry, around 50/50

i did a genetic test. on the old ancestry chromosomes painting i have been 100% european, but because there were only 3 races of People.

now with the updated 22 World Populations, im 70% Southern European + 30% Southasian and Middle Eastern
I also score 0.5% Sub-Saharan African, but I havent been before so i guess it could be "noise" or not really certain if im half a percent sub-saharan and even if i were, i dont know of any black ancestor and it is too minor to brand me part african?
Im also 0.8% Ashkenazi Jewish (but they are White?)

I looked up the Definition in the US Census but it doesnt Count my ancestral Group as a Race.

The U.S. Census does not count Roma as a group, since it is neither a nationality nor a religion
Roma in the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So Im not smarter then before.
Do you think I can refer myself as Caucasian/"White" in the USA despite having Middle Eastern and Southasian Genetic Components and not being fully European? Or should I Count myself as Tri-Racial or Bi-Racial?

here is a Picture of me with a good friend. Im the swarthy male. i will delete the Picture soon out, so dont Quote it. thank you. So what Race should i refer myself as in the USA? You will ask me what Race i refer myself as in my Country, but in my Country we dont Count People by Race such as "Caucasian, Asian, African-American etc." just by their nationality like "Italian, Norwegian, Somali, Chinese etc."

Once i applied for a Job in the USA and i filled out bi-racial. Do you think that was correct?

Whenever I'm faced with this question on a form, I check "other"... and write in "human"...

 

[Zoom-boing]

I've done what bayoubill does too. I also check other and write in 'alabaster' cause I'm a pale little thing and there's no box for that!

Seriously, just check other and put human or check white.

 

[Dugdale_Jukes]

Aside from some suspected Irish blood, my bloodline is white [Scots-Welsh] but my habit is to check the "other" or "do care to disclose" box.

My race is my business.

Check the box you feel like checking. It's the only way to defeat government meddling.

 

[there4eyeM]

Of the choices describing 'race', you are technically Caucasian. In the latest thinking about race, however, it is agreed that there is only one - human.

I liked your friend better than you.

Roma?

Ugh. Stay home (Where ever that is).

Just kidding (Don't put any gypsy curses on me..the werewolf one is bad enough)

Best to be truthful. And good luck.

 

[Huey]

you could also say"extraterestrial" also as many on this board are.Especially matt the cross-dresser.

 

[hjmick]

dont troll my thread

Why not?

can someone take me seriously. thank you

Really? You ask this question on this message board and expect to be taken seriously? What makes you special?

How old are you? Judging by your picture, I'm guessing at least... What? Thirty? Maybe younger, maybe older... Either way, you are certainly old enough to know under which racial category you fall...





Fucking dipsh...

I seriously dont know it dude. I think none of the Racial Categories fits me. Maybe "some other race". Eventhough in this a few responded with "Caucasian / White", I dont really think I am. I live in a predom. Germanic Country and was always identified as some sort of mutt and not as White. I think in the US most People would identify me also as Mutt, maybe as Hispanic? But since Im not Hispanic that is also a wrong category.

No discussion of family here. It is one of the few things that can get you barred from the site.
